Matt, i'm planning on hiking wed to catch the sunset. From what I remember reading, the hike is only 1.5 miles. I'll do some research beforehand(might camp there friday and sat night...) Figure it's the least I can do after reading Desert Solitaire .

Last time I was in Moab, we rented a couple of well equipped bikes to do slickrock. That is always an option if you dont feel like dragging your bike out for only a day of riding. Just bring your helmet and spandy pants. I am planning to hike on Wednesday. Not sure where yet. Gotta check out this place Perry has in mind.
